From self-criticism to self-compassion workshop

Are you hard on yourself after making a small mistake? Do you feel like you need to succeed in every aspect of your life and be perfect at everything?

Self-compassion is about giving ourselves the same kindness and care we would give to a good friend. It is about acting the same way towards ourselves when we are suffering, failing or having a difficult time, and being able to understand our suffering without ignoring it.

Delivered by Herts Mind Network, this workshop is for anyone interested in developing their understanding of the impact self-criticism can have and what it means to be self-compassionate.

This workshop aims to help you to:

• understand what self-compassion is and how it impacts your wellbeing;
• understand barriers to self-compassion;
• explore the three elements of self-compassion: self-kindness; common humanity and mindfulness;
• learn techniques to help you cultivate your self-compassion.
